In this video, Matt Watson from carwow takes a deep dive into the most infuriating trends in the automotive world. And let me tell you, folks, he doesn't hold back. First on the chopping block are those ridiculously oversized charging flaps on electric cars. I mean, seriously, do they really need to be bigger than the air bra of a jet? Watson points out that a charging plug is about the same size as a fuel nozzle, so why the need for these monstrosities?
But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Watson moves on to the mind-boggling complexity of modern cars. Gone are the days when you could simply adjust your cruise control settings with a handy button on the steering wheel. Oh no, now you have to navigate through a labyrinth of touchscreen menus just to make a simple adjustment. It's enough to make your head spin.
And let's not forget the invasion of touchscreens. They're taking over everything, even replacing traditional driver displays. Watson laments the lack of a dedicated display for the driver, forcing you to constantly glance to the side like a maniac just to check your speed. It's a recipe for disaster, if you ask me.
But it doesn't stop there. Watson dives into the world of gimmicks, highlighting Audi's customizable daytime running lights and the pixelated screens and scrolling displays on the Human Horizons HiPhi Zed and HiPhi X. While they may seem cool at first, Watson raises a valid concern about the potential headaches and exorbitant costs of repairing these flashy features down the line.
And that's not all, folks. Watson takes aim at car makers muffling the glorious sounds of internal combustion engines with restrictive exhausts. He argues that before we bid farewell to fossil fuels, we should be savoring every rev and roar. I couldn't agree more.
So, buckle up and join Watson on this wild ride as he dissects the most annoying trends in the automotive world. It's a no-holds-barred critique that will leave you nodding your head in agreement and questioning the sanity of car designers everywhere.
